The world of beer is constantly evolving and challenging itself. Modern twists are put on classic styles, and entirely new ones find their way into the mix. Perhaps you’re wondering what has beer drinkers talking lately. The next time you go to a sports bar, try one of the trendiest beer styles for yourself.

5 Trending Beer Styles to Enjoy

1. Ales

Brown and pale ales remain as popular as ever—the former for finding a good middle ground between dark and light beer and the latter for striking a tasty balance between hops and malt. If you want to go with something consistently satisfying next time you’re at a sports bar, try a pale ale with a ribeye steak. 

2. IPA

India pale ales (IPAs) have been capturing a lot of attention over the past couple of years because of their bold flavor, particularly when they’re hazy or juicy. To be a little adventurous, pair one with something spicy, like a cajun chicken sandwich. 

3. Wheat

With its tendency toward smooth and mild tastes, wheat beer will likely never go out of style at any sports bar. The wheat is actually what makes it feel so silky as it goes down your throat. They go well with anything, especially a classic cheeseburger.

4. Dark Beers

Smoky porters and roasty stouts are still on top popularity lists and for a good reason; they’re known for their naturally rich and intense flavor. For something really unique, try one with some tenderloin tips or shrimp.

5. Lagers

Though similar to ales, lagers are distinct enough to continue attracting their own strong following, thanks to their crisper flavor. When you have your next night out at a sports bar, order an artfully malty lager with a roasted chicken or a sriracha burger.

Any of these beers would perfectly cap off a day of golfing or bowling at the bar and grill at Coulee Golf Bowl in Onalaska, WI. The variety of delicious dishes and alcohols are a good enough reason to make a trip. To learn more about their availability and services, call (608) 781-1111, or visit them online to see their menu.
